I’ve been making the Marquee cocktail for a while with fresh muddled sage, which is one of my favorites. This drink adds the complexity of Chartreuse (the Monk!) to the sweetness of Sage and removes the lemon juice for a very complex and spicy cocktail.
Ingredients:
- 1/2 oz Sage simple syrup (see my How-To)
- 1/2 oz Green Chartreuse
- 1 oz Sutler’s gin
- 3/4 oz Aperol
- 2-3 leaves of fresh sage
-Muddle your fresh sage in a mixer
-Add the Sutler’s gin, and green Chartreuse
-Add Aperol and simple syrup
-Shake well and double strain into a coupe glass.
-Garnish with a fresh sage leaf.
This sounds great! I’ve got some sage growing on my balcony that hasn’t made it into a cocktail yet this year. Definitely going to make one of these!
